Arriving via DL, departing via AA (don't ask)

We have 3 hours 10 mins if all goes well
Is it necessary to pass through immigration? Security?

thanks

Will be spending a few (3-4) hours in the airport twice in early December.I understand the Admiral's Club is closed.
There seem to be 2 other lounges, one inside and one outside of security

Anyone know if they accept Priority Pass? What about Skyclub membership, or possibly AA EXP--maybe seated in business?

Thanks

Are you just guessing, or are you familiar with the lay-out of the airport?

Are you on a single PNR? If yes, you should be fine.
If no, then potentially problematic if your inbound flight is delayed.
Also, did you look at the FRA website? http://www.frankfurt-airport.com/con...irport/en.html
You can look up your arriving and departing flight information and get an idea of transferring between your gates.

Thanks--link is useful. I see we are arriving Terminal 2D and departing 2E. didn't spend a lot of time on the page but didn't see a map. Any idea whether those 2 terminals are a walk, inside security, or something different?

Added: the web page has a link to contact them. I did and they replied to say no problem to remain in the transit area between flights
And no, different PNR's--I realize there is a gamble involved

As for your Priority Pass question... I don't actually know the answer (as I haven't looked it up), but the Priority Pass web site has all the information.

Good suggestion. The Sky Lounge near Gate D8 Terminal 2 accepts Priority Pass
